On this W2M episode, we give our thoughts and predictions in our ROH
Death Before Dishonor 2016 Preview. There’s also some big news coming
out of TNA with Billy Corgan becoming the new TNA President, while Dixie
Carter moves into a Chairman position. TNA is also creating a new
championship that includes three rounds, MMA rules, and even judges.
Could this be a revolutionary thing for wrestling? Or do we think this
is going to be something that falls flat on its face? Either way, it is
nice to

hear TNA is trying something different.

We also get into the wrestling news in “Quick Hits.” Shawn Michaels
becoming a NXT coach. Sarah Amato and Adam Pearce moving up to the main
roster. Goldberg appearing for 2K at Summerslam. WWE’s big schedule for
the WWE Network this week. WWE exploring avenues for more LGBT
characters and more.

On this episode of W2M, Tom Reese joins the show to help cover one of
the biggest events of the entire wrestling year. Of course, that’s the
New Japan Pro-Wrestling G1 Climax tournament. We discuss what the odds
are for each wrestler involved, points they may garner, and who has the
best chance to win it all. This NJPW G1 Climax 26 Preview is going to
be as all-encompassing as we can make it.

We start things though with Wrestling News in “Quick Hits.” We discuss John Cena’s performance at

the ESPY’S and how long
he really has left in WWE. Moose signs a two year deal, AJ Lee’s
autobiography has a name, Caristico is injured again, and more.

We are of course talking about doing a ROH Best in the World 2016

There’s the latest WWE RAW to talk about. Not to mention, New Japan
Pro-Wrestling had their Kizuna Road Show. NJPW also announced the G1
Climax 26 Blocks and

participants as well.

We start things with a discussion about WWE RAW.

Next, the Wrestling news is brought up in “Quick Hits,” where we discuss
quite a few changing plans for the WWE brand extension. This is where
we give our thoughts on the NJPW G1 Climax 26 Blocks announcement too,
as we give some “way too early” predictions to boot.

After that, we run through some ROH TV and then get into our ROH Best in the World 2016 Review to close out the podcast.

Due to Father’s Day, everyone’s schedules didn’t match up on our normal
night, but don’t fret, because we are still doing this podcast and our
regular Tuesday one as well.

On a memorable night for both companies, WWE and NJPW put on two
enjoyable shows and we are here to discuss them. What did we like? What
wasn’t so great? What was the best match on both shows? Did the Money
in the

Bank contract get
cashed-in? How did the first ever Ladder Match in NJPW history turn out?
Plus, we have our final ratings for both events as well.

Gary, Sean, and Paul do the WWE Money in the Bank 2016 Review, then the
guys are joined by Longtime wrestling fan and our NJPW correspondent Tom
Reese for the NJPW Dominion 2016 Review as well. So, much to talk
about from these events. You don’t want to miss it.

On this W2M episode, there are two big shows happening on Sunday, (which
is also Father’s Day,) and we do predictions for both. Of course, I’m
talking about a WWE Money in the Bank 2016 Preview and a NJPW Dominion
2016 Preview.

We start things with Wrestling News in “Quick Hits” talking the big deal
signed by WWE for RAW, Smackdown, and PPV’s to air in China, along with

On this episode of W2M, we breakdown and cover everything that happened
on this year’s version of New Japan’s wrestling vacation in our NJPW
Wrestling Dontaku 2016 Review.

We also discuss two hot button issues with RyBack’s Tumblr post about
WWE’s pay scale and how it should be changed to a more equal system.
Should WWE change their system to something more modern? Or is the old
way with incentives the way to go? Will RyBack re-sign with WWE in the
end?

There’s also the Cameron instagram

post about celebrities
and cyber bullying. Does Cameron have a point here? Or does her being a
public figure cause her to be excluded from this? Does she deserve all
the hate she gets? We discuss all of this plus even more news.

Ring of Honor also has a big PPV with New Japan called Global Wars happening on Sunday and we have a Preview of that as well.

Sorry we are a day late, but this is one of those rare times that our schedules didn’t work out on the normal day.

Either way, we are here to deliver a WWE Payback 2016 Preview and a Wrestling Dontaku 2016 Preview as well.

We start with the Wrestling News in “Quick Hits” discussing a big
potential change to the WWE Network and how we feel about WWE cracking
down on multiple device logins. We also talk about a potential ROH and
WWE relationship, Eric Young’s debut on NXT, Sinclair interested

in buying TNA, WWE releasing Kyle Edwards and Rich Brennan in the matter of days, Kamaitachi done with CMLL and more.

We then get into our WWE Payback 2016 Preview here.

After that we move onto discussing NXT and Lucha Underground

Next is our Wrestling Dontaku 2016 Preview

Finally, we end things on TNA Impact Wrestling and of course our W2M Power Rankings.

Welcome to the Tuesday edition of W2M, where we examine the go-home
edition of RAW. How did we like Stephanie McMahon’s return? Will the
future of RAW really be decided at PayBack? Did the show make us
interested in the PPV happening on Sunday? We discuss all of these
things and of course have our final rating as well.

We also move into “Quick Hits” covering news from over the weekend. We
talk about Finn Balor toying with the minds of the fans, Velvet Sky
leaves TNA again, TNA will have a PPV

and it’s Slammiversary,
EDGE and Christian Show may not go past Season 1, WWE Films snags
Wesley Snipes, and a few other things.
